POLICE SEEK MAN WHO STOLE $8,000 LES PAUL BY STUFFING IT INTO HIS PANTS​

Surveillance camera footage shows a man inserting the neck of the instrument into his trousers before nonchalantly tucking the body underneath his jacket.https://guitar.com/news/gear-news/police-seek-man-who-stole-8000-les-paul-by-stuffing-into-pants/

 

[String Tree]

And, he did so without attracting any attention.

 

[P Thought]

Watch out for sharp string ends at the tuners

 

[Greggorios]

As Mae West would say..."Is that a Les Paul in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?"

 

[Bones]

They should add felonious man-bunning to the charges.

 

[Mike Eskimo]

Man-bunning ? Now I’m not going to click on the link…(why is that not a hang-able offense at this point ?)

 

[68tele]

That took some practice, and big-ass sweatpants

 

[Hiker]

I was trying to visualize him stuffing a long play (LP) record in his pants, and apparently I fell for the abbreviated title of the thread.

 

[50ShadesofOrange]

He must’ve gotten sick of waiting for someone to help him at GC.

 

[MickM]

When I read the title I thought that the $8000 LP was a rare record album. I figured it was possible if he was wider than the average bear.

Maybe this guy took some time to hone his craft and tried again?

I am SO GRATEFUL my booking photo(s) have not shown up online

I'm not gonna lie, I just tried this with my own single cut lol
Although my pants aren't as baggy as his, it still seems like there's no way it would not be obvious if you tried walking with the guitar like that. It boggles my mind.

 

[Killing Floor]

Saw that earlier. I don’t think I could fit a guitar in my pants. Let alone walk.

Also, an afterthought ... If you told me last year that I'd be trying to stuff a guitar into my pants for any reason, I wouldn't believe you.

We all have a little larceny in us but that takes cohones.

 

[Dostradamas]

That's the new discount.

Walk in, take something and just walk out.

Bring lots of friends, it makes it easier.

Prosecution for these crimes isn't happening right now so have fun.

 

[Informal]

Wait till you see the footage of his fat wife stealing an upright bass!

 

[LutherBurger]

"...the large bulge in the man’s sweatpants is clearly visible."

Story of my life.

Nut's....just nut's. However, I do believe the Les Paul now has his brass cohones!
